think steven means a runx
No just my yellow bucket of bolts , it's probably the newest ae in the country, just ask Revhead he's added to my visa bills!!!
The Runx was only 20 odd about the same cost as my next 4ag!
When I get bored I'll post up a break down of where the money goes, nearly enough to put you off motorsport.
Your addiction to motorsport can only be cured by poverty!

Yep, its like they say, if you want to make a small fortune from motorsport, you first need to start off with a large one
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

This makes me all moist with excitement. If they did make a new RWD corolla, damn that would be hot HOT sex on wheels. haha
But honestly if they remade a AE86 that was made with a monocot alluminium chassi... With real suspension instead of a solid rear axle and stub axle fronts.... Only i can dream.

New ae86 would turn out like Chryslers PT Cruiser. They tried to make it out like a new version hotrod. Fail!

Although it may not be 'cool', I'd say that the MX5 *IS* the modern equivilent of the AE86.
Light weight, rear wheel drive, not all that powerful, but with improvements like IRS and a few other goodies.
It just goes to show how much people can be swayed by 'image', as they'd rather not be seen in a car like an MX5, despite that it's probably the closest thing to a new AE86 that will ever see the roads.

Would have been interesting to see what the situation would be like if MX5's were the main car in Initial D instead of the 86's

MX-5's actually hold their value quite well.
Lady at my work sold her 1990 MX-5 last year for about $10,000. And it was auto and not exactly the best condition.
I was actually shocked when she told me how much she was listing it for and laughed at her. Then she told me that they usually fetch that much. She sold it pretty quick too.

Either you're confused about some of the details, or she was very very lucky.
